Introducing NetVault Backup Plug-in for Exchange Defining an Exchange data protection strategy Planning your Exchange Server deployment Installing and removing the plug-in Configuring the plug-in Backing up data Restoring data Troubleshooting

Setting security options

To specify job-specific authentication, click the Security tab, and configure the following parameters:

•
Exchange Administrator User Name: By default, this field contains the administrator-level account that was used to back up the original target Exchange Server. You can change this value, but the account named must have the proper backup and restore permissions for the machine that is to serve as the target of the restore.
•
Password: Enter the password associated with the user name specified in the previous field.
•
Windows Domain: If a domain account is specified in the Exchange Administrator User Name field, enter the name of the domain. The field can be left blank if a local system account is specified.

Finalizing and submitting the restore job

The final steps include setting additional options on the Schedule, Source Options, and Advanced Options pages, submitting the job, and monitoring the progress through the Job Status and View Logs pages. These pages and options are common to all NetVault Backup Plug-ins. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

1
To save the settings, click Ok, and then click Next.
2
In Job Name, specify a name for the job if you do not want to use the default setting.
Assign a descriptive name that lets you easily identify the job when monitoring its progress. The job name can contain alphanumeric and nonalphanumeric characters, but it cannot contain non-Latin characters. On Windows, there is no length restriction; however, a maximum of 40 characters is recommended.
3
In the Target Client list, select the machine on which you want to restore the data.
 
* 
TIP: You can also click Choose, and then locate and select the applicable client in the Choose the Target Client dialog box.
4
Use the Schedule, Source Options, and Advanced Options lists to configure any additional required options.
5
Click Save or Save & Submit, whichever is applicable.
You can monitor progress on the Job Status page and view the logs on the View Logs page. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

Performing post-restore steps DAG environments

If you did not use the Update database Replication after Recovery option, use the Exchange Management Console or Shell to update the database copies manually. For more information, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd351100.aspx.

Examples of restore sequences

NetVault Backup sees all restore scenarios using the plug-in as a sequence of restores, from the recovery of a series of 10 Incremental Backups to the recovery of a single Full Backup. Therefore, you must follow a specific set of steps to recover data successfully. The following topics offer examples for various backup types. These examples assume that a noncontinuous replication environment is deployed.

•
Restoring a standalone Full Backup
•
Restoring Incremental Backup sequence
•
Restoring Full and Differential Backup sequence
